I'm flying Jakarta to Sydney and Sydney to Melbourne in Qantas business class, then Jetstar from Melbourne to Hobart.


I've got two questions:
  • Do you know if they can tag my bag through to Hobart with Jetstar, either at Jakarta or at the transfer desk in Sydney?
  • Could I get lounge access in Melbourne after coming off a same-day international business class flight in Sydney?

Unfortunately due to lack of reward seats, I was unable to go straight from Sydney to Hobart. Not having to pick up my bags again in Melbourne would be a plus. Thanks for any help.

Unfortunately you won’t be able to get your bag tagged all the way through to Hobart as the Jetstar system is seperate. You should be able to get it tagged through to Melb if you have linked your bookings, however you will

Still needs to clear customs and immigration in Sydney.

Re lounge, I think you could still get in, however not sure what the text book answer is. Also note Jetstar leaves from a seperate terminal in melb

Thanks, all flights are on one ticket but looks like I'll need to pick it up in Sydney and in Melbourne.


Yes I'm aware of T1/T4 in Melbourne, just wondering if it's worth going T1 to T4 for check-in, back to T1 for lounge and back to T4 for the flight... have to say it doesn't sound appealing!

No, bags are not through checked for QF and then JQ flights so you will need to recheck in MEL. You have access to the QF Business lounge as part of your domestic and international business tickets by on arrival privileges. As for the dash between terminals, the MEL business lounge is recently renovated and I can safely say that it is very nice with great food selections, decor and apron views. But the time wasted will determine whether that's worth it to you.
